As the drama unfolds on Coronation Street, we can't help but wonder if Todd Grimshaw's nightmare of domestic violence will finally come to an end. The villain behind it all, Theo Silverton, may soon lose his grip on his rage and the consequences could be dire. Will someone step in to save the day?
Actor James Cartwright, who portrays Theo, knows his character is not exactly a model citizen. "I think we always knew he was a complicated man," he admits. "But now, as we delve deeper, we see that he's not just complicated, he's also potentially dangerous. His flaws and inner turmoil are starting to surface, and I'm not sure even he can control them. It's putting others at risk."
And it's true. Ever since Theo swaggered onto the street, he's been giving off some major warning signs. His cheating and inability to accept his own sexuality caused him to lose his wife and child, and he's taken out his anger on Todd, their toxic relationship spiraling out of control.
"He's made Todd the scapegoat for all the things that have gone wrong in his life since he met him," reveals James. "In just 10 months, he's been through more than most do in 10 years. Divorce, losing his children, his business failing - these are major life events. And he's decided to blame Todd for it all, since Todd left his seemingly perfect life to be with him. So when things go wrong, he turns it around and blames Todd."
Recently, Theo took his abuse to a whole new level by smashing Todd's face against a mirror. He's also isolated Todd from his loved ones, body-shamed him, and controlled his every move under the guise of caring for his health. It's clear that Theo will stop at nothing to "punish" Todd.
But why does he hurt him? James explains that he's not a psychopath, but rather a narcissist. He acts out of rage and then falls into a cycle of self-hatred, turning to alcohol to cope. It's a dangerous pattern that keeps repeating itself.
